Hi Pedro,
I think there is no error, bacula is showing the volume occupied in the
tape now, no the total capacity.
In my case for example :
*list volume pool=XXX
pool: XXX
+---------+------------+-----------+---------+-------------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+---------------------+
| MediaId | VolumeName | VolStatus | Enabled | VolBytes | VolFiles
| VolRetention | Recycle | Slot | InChanger | MediaType |
LastWritten |
+---------+------------+-----------+---------+-------------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+---------------------+
| 31 | M50136L5 | Full | 1 | 1,512,679,827,456 | 1,519
| 7,776,000 | 1 | 24 | 1 | LTO-5 | 2013-01-19
04:07:19 |
| 33 | M50138L5 | Append | 1 | 143,192,159,232 | 146
| 7,776,000 | 1 | 26 | 1 | LTO-5 | 2013-04-18
05:18:39 |
| * 34 | M50139L5 | Append | 1 | 64,512 |
0 | 7,776,000 | 1 | 27 | 1 | LTO-5 | 0000-00-00
00:00:00 |*
As you see the M50139L5 is an empty tape
